Title: Electronically Switchable Potential Difference Sources
IPC: G02F1/03
Filed: 1968-01-05
Abstract: 1,194,981. Light modulators and deflectors. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP. 5 Jan., 1968 [18 Jan., 1967], No. 735/68. Heading H4F. [Also in Division H1] A switching device for an electro-optic crystal 44, Fig. 3, comprises two cathode-ray tubes 40, 41 each including two target electrodes of different secondary emission ratios, e.g. of cadmium and platinum, so that when the beam of tube 40 impinges on one electrode 47 the output voltage on lead 42 is 3000 volts, and when it impinges on the other electrode 48 the output voltage is 700 volts. Capacitors 45 and 46 form potential dividers to produce the correct voltage across the crystal 44, and this voltage may be reversed by deflecting the beams to the opposite state to that shown by means of control circuits 57 and 58. Each tube may include a plurality of pairs of target electrodes connected to a corresponding number of crystals (Fig. 4, not shown). The electro-optic crystal may form part of a light deflection system (Fig. 1, not shown) in conjunction with a birefringent crystal, the deflection depending on the polarization, which can be altered by the electro-optic crystal. Another application is to rotating the polarization wherein the crystal (35, Fig. 2, not shown) is located between an input polarizer (33) and a quarter-wave plate (36). With no voltage across the crystal the output is the same as the input; with a voltage equivalent to the half wavelength voltage applied across the crystal the polarization of the output beam is orthogonal to that of the input beam. If a passive quarter wave plate (83, Fig. 8, not shown) is connected optically in series with the crystal (84) the switching voltage may be halved.

Filed: 1956-01-11
Abstract: 778,513. Springs. BARRY CONTROLS, Inc. Jan. 11, 1956 [Feb. 9, 1955], No. 965/56. Class 108(3). The invention relates to a resilient mounting of the kind comprising a spring 14 disposed between a load attachment member 6 and a base 2, and a vibration damping element 17 of interlocked pliable wire. According to the invention, the member or the base has a cavity 30 extending axially of the mounting, and the element 17 is immovably held at one of its ends by the base or the member respectively, its other end being entered into the cavity 30. In operation, with relative vibratory motion between the member 6 and base 2, there is frictional engagement between the wall of the cavity 30 and the friction element 17. Under relative vibratory transverse motion between the member 6 and base 2, the damping element 17 is subject to flexure. A flange 11 on the member 6 is encased within a resilient snubber 12 formed by compressing a knitted wire covering on to the flange. The element 17 is formed from a flattened tube, Figs. 4 and 5 (not shown) of knitted stainless steel wire. One half of the flattened tube is twisted about a longitudinal axis through 180 degrees, and is then turned about an axis at right angles to the longitudinal axis, so that the two halves lie against each other. The ends of the two halves which are now adjacent, are outwardly flared and disposed between washers 23, 24, the washer 23 then being swaged over the washer 24. In a modification, Fig. 7 (not shown) the splayed end of the member 17 is held between a washer 24 and the recessed portions of the base plate of the base 2. In this latter construction, the base 2 and the member 6 are formed so as to grip the respective ends of the spring 14 so that the latter can operate in tension as well as in compression. In another construction, Fig. 8 (not shown), the recess 30 is formed in the base, and the splayed end of the element 17 is secured to the member 6. In yet another construction Fig. 6 (not shown), the flange 2a carrying the attachment holes 5 is carried at the top of the housing 3 instead of at the bottom, as shown. The damping element 17 may alternatively be made from a tube of double-thickness material. Specifications 687,467, 703,731 and 708,900 are referred to.
